California depends on fresh water from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta:
  • To supply more than 22 million Californians, plus industry and agriculture
  • To support $400 billion of the state's economy
A loss of water from the Delta impacts our economy
  • Total costs to California's economy could be $30 to $40 billion in the first five years
  • Total job loss could exceed 30,000
  • State law requires a 20-year water supply for all new development
The State Water Project diverts water from the Delta
